philippshen Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Shadow 2, 46.5oz on CZ-USA website. Carry optic rule, 45oz weight limit. With CZC slide cut(with rear sight removed), polymer guide rod, lighter grips, can we make shadow2 under 45oz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClangClang Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 You need to remove at least 4.5 oz of weight. The only way would be to remove significant chunks of metal from every possible area (shortened dust cover, lightening cuts in the slide, etc), but that would bump it to Open due to external mods.

MuddAndStuff Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Nope. I already tried weighing in the grips the guide rod and removing the iron sights . With all that removed it still would be too heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowdyb Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 1 hour ago, MemphisMechanic said: Sure about that, a year later? I was right though, that simply that slide cut for the optic wouldn't be enough. CZC removes more weight from two other places in the slide to get you even close and you're still juggling grips, base pads and maybe guide rod.

Wrecks Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Polymer guide rod is a necessity. Question will be if CZ thinks it's okay to weigh it with the standard 17 round mags with polymer pads, which would make making weight simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eerw Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 (edited) We cut the slide with enough reduction that you can run a DPP, heaviest dot. ,CZC ext pad and no other changes and be under 45 ounces. Edited August 16, 2018 by eerw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
